EarthGazer → MakerBase

Since April 2018, the business has been known simply as MakerBase.

The business has steadily evolved, and the EarthGazer name has been complimented with new brand names throughout its time, including ControlBase and MakerBase.

Introduced in 2012, the MakerBase name has become synonymous with our high-end design, prototyping and manufacturing expertise - so in simplifying our focus, mission and branding to mark the beginning of our 19th year back in 2018, it made perfect sense that the focus of our business, is the name of our business.

MakerBase is a trading name of EarthGazer Ltd.
